Self-Use Mode stores the excess PV power into the battery. If the battery is charged, or there
is no battery, the excess PV power will be exported(sold)back to the utility company. If the
system is set to not export any power, then the inverter will curtail the PV power(derate the
inverter output power).
Feed in Priority Mode will ensure that the system exports any excess PV power after the
home loads are supplied. If the export power quota has been met, then the remaining PV
power will be stored in the battery. This mode should not be used if export power is going to
be set to zero.

Peak-shaving Mode: Peak-shaving function is possible to set the maximum power (Pmax)
that the system obtains from the main grid. The power of the main grid charges batteries and
supplies power to the load, which is within (Pmax). When the load power exceeds the set
maximum power (Pmax), the insufficient part is provided by the battery. At the same time,
users can set the Peak SOC and charge the battery to this SOC as far as possible under the
premise of satisfying Pmeter.

Backup Mode can be opened in the Self-Use or Feed in Priority Mode. What this mode does
is ensure that the battery does not drain past the Reserve SOC(state-of-charge) percentage.
The battery will cycle between 100% and the Reserve SOC, so if grid power is lost, the battery
will have the Reserve SOC at the very least to carry the home through the outage.

Time of Use Switch is for customizing when the battery is allowed to charge and discharge
power and at what rate, established by a current(amperage)setting.If this slider switch is
turned on, the inverter will only use this schedule to determine when to charge and discharge
the battery. If Allow Grid Charging is turned on, the inverter will use grid power to charge the
battery only under two circumstances:(1) the battery drains to the Force Charge SOC.
(2)Time of Use is enabled and there is not enough available PV power during the charge
window to meet the current rate that is established.
Time of Use is for manual control of the battery charging/discharging.If Time of Use is
turned off, charging/discharging is automatically regulated by the inverter.

AC Coupling Scheme
Customers can integrate a new energy storage inverter (S6 Hybrid) to an existed Grid - tied
inverter system. Users can select two ways of AC Coupling connection modes. One is connect
the Grid –tied inverter to S6 inverter Gen port and another is on the backup Port.
(Tips: When the total system is at on-grid status, the grid-tied PV inverter MUST be connected
to the backup port of hybrid inverter. )

Battery Setting
Battery Model: select the battery model to be connected.
Peak-shaving setting: If the switch is enable, the power of force charging will be
dynamically adjusted.
Few samples to be clear: (Forcecharge Limited Power Setting=4kW)
If the load=3kW,PV=0kW,P_forcecharge=P_Grid(4kW)-P_ Load(3kW)=1kW.
If the load=10kW,PV=0kW,P_forcecharge=0kW,P_Grid=P_Load=10kW.
ECO Function: If PV power is lower than 100W and SOC falls below overdischarge SOC,
the inverter will turn off the grid relays and IGBT switching. If forcecharge SOC is reached,
it will connect back to grid and charge battery back to overdischarge SOC, then turn off again.

Battery wake up: After Battery wake up command, the inverter powers the DC battery port
using Battery Wakeup Voltage and low AMP till BMS communication of battery will be restored
and within awaken time.

Over-discharge SOC: When the battery is discharged to the over-discharge soc, the battery
will nor discharge actively.(Due to the internal current, conduction, there is a small self-
consumption power, if not charged for a long time, the SOC will slowly continue to decline.)

Force-charge SOC: Due to the battery power consumption, when the over-discharge SOC
drops to the force-charge SOC, the inverter will directly charge the battery according to the
maximum battery charging current until the battery SOC reaches the over-discharge SOC.
(The charging power is nor limited to sources, which may be from PV or from the grid.
If “Charging from grid”is set to “Not Allow”,the charging logic may not be implemented.)
It is not recommended to set the over-discharge&force-charge SOC to the same value,
which may cause frequent charging and discharging.

GEN_Start_SOC/Volt: If SOC/Volt reaches GEN_Start_SOC/Volt, the generator can be


started.

GEN_Exit_SOC/Vot: If SOC/Volt reaches GEN_Exit_SOC/Volt, the generator can be


stopped.

Battery Discharge Hysteresis SOC


When the Force-charge SOC is reached, the battery will be force-charged to the Overdischarge
SOC + Overdischarge Hysteresis SOC. Overdischarge Hysteresis SOC range from 1% to 20%,
Overdischarge Hysteresis SOC default value is 1%.
For example: If customer set the Overdischarge SOC is 20%, Overdischarge Hysteresis SOC
is 5%.When the battery SOC is discharged to 10%( Forcecharge SOC set as 10%), Then the
lithium SOC will be forcecharged to 25%.
Battery Healing function
When the lithium battery is kept at low SOC for a long time, the measurement of lithium battery
SOC is not accurate. The Battery Healing function will allow the system to charge the battery to
the set Battery Healing SOC when the battery reaches the discharged SOC, so as to ensure the
healthy and stable operation of the lithium battery.
The Battery Equalization function of lead-acid battery
Pre-condition: When the days since last battery balancing exceed battery balancing Interval
days already set.Then the inverter will not enter the floating charge mode when the lead-acid
battery floating charge judgment is met for the first time on the same day when pre-condition
occur. But force charge battery at a balanced voltage on a constant voltage state, the charging
time is the time of balance, after finishing it, battery enter into float-charging state.

The Second backup load and smart load


Second backup load: The GEN port can be set as the second Backup port(The setting name
on App: Gen Port Load Open), The Gen port has extended power, which can be used as a
second Backup port to pick up loads when the generator is not connected, thus expanding
backup capacity. In addition, in off-grid mode, the customer can remotely control, shut down
this port, so that some non-essential loads stop running, while keeping the necessary loads,
to achieve the purpose of energy saving.
Smart load: The smart load function means there is a load connected to GEN port can start
or stop smartly. When the PV energy and battery SOC/Volt meet the set value, the relay at the
generator port closes and outputs energy. When the PV energy is less than the set value or the
battery SOC/Volt drops to OFF SOC/Volt, the relay disconnects and stops supplying power to
the smart load.
Example: Set Start_Power=500W, Smart Load_ON_SOC=100%, Smart Load_OFF _SOC=95%.
When PV≥500W and SOC reaches 100%, Gen port supplies power to smart Load. If PV < 500W
or SOC≤95%, the relay is disconnected and power supply is stopped.

Frequently Asked Questions


Q1: Why I have "CAN Fail" Alarm on the inverter?
A:"CAN Fail" indicates the CAN communication between inverter and battery is lost.
Please double check if your CAN cable is correctly connected and if your battery is power on.

Q2: Why I have "BATName-Fail" Alarm on the inverter ?


A: Please check in the "Battery Setting->Battery Model" setting and confirm you selected the
correct battery option as the nameplate of your battery module.

Q3:Why I have "MET-SLT-Fail" Alarm on the inverter?


A: Please check in the "Meter Setting->Meter Type" setting and confirm you selected the
correct meter option corresponding to your smart meter.

Q4:Why the power values on the screen are fluctuating


very fast?
A: If your loads are changing drastically, the inverter will adjust its power accordingly. If you
confirm the loads are stable while the inverter power is changing very fast, please double
check your meter CT's direction and make sure the arrow is towards grid.

Q5: Why I have "OV-ILLC" Alarm on the inverter ?


A: OV-ILLC indicates there is an overcurrent issue on the internal LLC circuit. It could be
transient status during extreme condition such as overload. If it happens constantly or too
frequent and the extreme conditions have been excluded, please contact Solis service team.

Q6: Why I have "OV-BATT-H" Alarm on the inverter ?


A: OV-BATT-H indicates over voltage issue on the hardware of battery circuit. It could be
caused by high battery voltage at full SOC, battery suddenly switching off, etc. If it happens
constantly or too frequent and the extreme conditions have been excluded, please contact
Solis service team.

Q7: Why I have "No-Battery" Alarm on the inverter?


A: Please double check if the battery power cables have been correctly connected and the
battery breaker (on battery or external) has been turn on. If you don't want to connect the
battery for now, please select the "No battery" option in "Battery Setting->Battery Model"
to prevent the alarm to show up.
